A 16 year veteran of the Levy County Sheriff's office is behind bars tonight, facing serious allegations.
38 year old Lieutenant Zachary Knight is accused of sexually assaulting a woman he was dating on Thursday. Knight was arrested Friday at a Chiefland home, after the sheriff's office reported the complaint to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
Knight, who is also a mixed martial arts cage fighter, is charged with sexual battery, false imprisonment and tampering with a victim.
His bond is set at $2 million dollars and Knight is suspended without pay.
